    Hi. I was in the process of going through all the Read Me First steps. I ran MGtools and left it to finish overnight. When I checked the computer again, it had restarted to install Windows updates. I don't see a log file (MGtools.zip) anywhere. Does that mean it didn't complete? I know it says not to re-run any of the tools but if I don't have a log file...?

    FYI: The log file is named MGlogs.zip. Sometimes if it runs into a problem creating this log file, it tries to locate individual logs and it will attempt putting them into a file name MGlogsR.zip which would then be located in the C:\MGtools folder. But it will tell you when it is creating this file. You have to read the messages in the black command prompt window when it completes.
